Hi guys. It’s hard for me to ever ask for help and even with everything going on I feel guilty for even asking but we could really use the help and if you know me at all you know my whole being and my whole world is my boys. I would do anything for them. So I’m putting my feelings aside and asking for help, please.

Long, terrifying story short. Our sweet, wild boy Dean had a terrible fall from 15 feet onto concrete. He is currently in the pediatric icu and will have surgery and a long recovery ahead of him. He suffered skull and orbital fractures that even the doctors said were complex and they’d never seen before. He also suffered injuries to his shoulder, ribs and lung but those are minor compared to his head and shouldn’t require any surgery. He’s currently hooked up to a ventilator and in an induced coma for his own healing and safety but doctors are optimistic it won’t be for long. Doctors are also optimistic that there is no brain damage and there will be minimal to no visual impairments. For now it’s just a waiting game.

If you know us at all you know our lives are filled with chaos… one thing after another. Dealt the worst cards, often. Less than 24 hours before this happened I was in the worst depressive episode and said “I don’t know how much more I can take”. And of course life said here’s some more stress on top of the mountains of stress you are already under. This is going to be a lengthy hospital stay and we’re already drowning financially. Scott will still need to work as we cannot afford for him to not. I also will not be able to do any of my side hustles that I normally do for extra income as I need to be with Dean as much as possible and still be there for the other boys and their needs.

We know more than anyone right now that times are tough so if you cannot afford to donate please don’t go broke for us.. just share and say a prayer. I’m not a religious person but I will take all the prayers and good vibes I can get. I just need my Deanie beanie to be okay.
